The UK’s National Flag Charity

Funded entirely by members' subscriptions - and with membership open to all - the Flag Institute is a unique source of freely-available, independent, advice on flags and flag-use. We are the largest membership-based flag organisation in the world, with members on all six continents. Join us and help shape the UK's national flag debate.

The golden bridge over the blue represents the iconic crossing over the River Monnow with the green of the background, the same shade as the Welsh flag, representing Monmouth as a historically important crossing into Wales. Above the bridge is a simple depiction of the gatehouse, offset to the hoist for visibility.
